What Is The Cure For The Swollen Lip With White Spot?
I cut my bottom lip yesterday playing basketball. It was somewhat deep, but now has a white sort of scab on it. I have been cleaning with peroxide and using salt water rinse. It is still a bit swollen, but there is no pain.
Should I seek medical attention?

Hi,
As it is healing well, nothing to worry.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
If there is pain, swelling or risk of having scar, go for one course of antibiotic medicine after consulting your doctor.
Ok and take care.
